CSS stylesheet are used on the web to customize the look and feel of HTML
files. DocBook is not compatible with HTML and many of the tags and
semantics are different.
It may be possible to convert a DocBook/XML file into HTML on the fly
using an XSLT stylesheet. Generally speaking, DocBook is intended for
off-line processing.

sense nonetheless.
